Creating accessible websites and digital materials in your educational environment reduces barriers and ensures that all students encounter your materials can understand and interact with them.

Websites and digital materials that are not designed with accessibility in mind exclude a significant population of potential users from participating in an ever increasing internet dependent world. Unfortunately, information exclusion is a barrier people with disabilities all too often experience.

To get started visit and bookmark CELT's Accessibility in Your Course page and the ISU Digital Access site

Facilitated by, Laura Bestler, Program Coordinator, CELT along with with Special Guest Cyndi Wiley, Digital Access Coordinator, IT
